Prerequisites

The Content Administration portal role is assigned to your user.

Context

The applications that provide collaboration services, are represented by configuration objects (types). To make available the required services as menu items or links in the applications in question, you must assign the corresponding command group to each of the types described in the following table.

Type

Application (iView)

Launch of Services

clpType
